Warping the Universal Extra Dimensions
Kristian L. McDonald
We develop the necessary ingredients for the construction of realistic models with warped universal extra dimensions. Our investigations are based on the seven dimensional (7D) spa…
A solution to the hierarchy problem from an almost decoupled hidden sector within a classically scale invariant theory
Robert Foot, Archil Kobakhidze, Kristian L. McDonald +1
If scale invariance is a classical symmetry then both the Planck scale and the weak scale should emerge as quantum effects. We show that this can be realized in simple scale invari…
Quark-Lepton Symmetry and Quartification in Five Dimensions
Kristian L. McDonald
We outline some features of higher dimensional models possessing a Quark-Lepton (QL) symmetry. The QL symmetric model in five dimensions is discussed, with particular emphasis on t…
Neutrino mass in radiatively-broken scale-invariant models
Robert Foot, Archil Kobakhidze, Kristian. L. McDonald +1
Scale invariance may be a classical symmetry which is broken radiatively. This provides a simple way to stabilize the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking against radiative corre…
Combining Left-Right And Quark-Lepton Symmetries In 5D
Andrew Coulthurst, Jason Doukas, Kristian L. McDonald
A five dimensional model containing both left-right and quark-lepton symmetries is constructed, with the gauge group broken by a combination of orbifold compactification and the Hi…
Developments In 5D Quark-Lepton Symmetric Models
A. Coulthurst, A. Demaria, K. L. McDonald +1
We outline some recent developments in higher dimensional Quark-Lepton (QL) symmetric models. The QL symmetric model in five dimensions is discussed, with particular emphasis on th…
